Problem Pltex does not create an .Tex file

[Trekkie]

hey everyone!

i just dug into the Pltex tool and tried to create an Level 7 planet texture, all goes well and the patches are being loaded but after that it closes but it does not create an .Tex file anyone knows what im doing wrong here or if im looking in the wrong directory? i tried to pause the window but it was just closing too fast otherwise i could have seen it myself


i hope someone is able to help me out here

Are your textures in powers of 2? Ie. 4096X2048 pixels and are the images being used .bmp files?

Ye bmp and 4096x2048

Is the bitmap a 24 bit one? Others aren't supported as far as I remember. Also if you're making the planet textures with refection and/or night lights the images used must be the same size.

I thought so yes but im not sure about it, but would that be a reason to not let it convert to an .Tex file? Because it was like patching it at the end

Well in any case here is me running a test map for you to see how I do it.

Edit: Well it seems to have been resized and illegible. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
